I always knew what I wanted but I could either not afford it or not be able to find it in South Africa.
I, at last, got my hands on my Warwick 6 String Thumb Bass. It is a 91 model and is in A++ condition. Amazing if you take into account that it is a 30-year-old guitar.
I am basically in heaven even though my playing skills fall far short of what my Warwick is capable of.
I trust that I will from now on only get better.
You will get better when you have your dream guitar, right?
